Thought I'd add a more current review. Came with my two intermediate level fisherman sons, one of…read morewhom really wanted to catch a trout in August, which is not prime trout season and thus difficult in public access areas now. I set them at a limit of 2 fish each because we wouldn't be able to eat or afford too many. They used lures, their own poles, and we were able to catch 4 one-pounders within an hour. The kids at first were targeting certain fish but then realized they weren't quite skilled enough to do that. There is a smaller, colder easier trout pond; a large less easy trout pond, and a bass pond on the side. Previous reviews complain about a mean lady, but the cashier/weigher was nice. We came on a Thursday, and it was not crowded. Fish looked healthy. Saw mainly rainbow trout, but some palominos and some sparse brook trout. I believe the bass pond had small mouth bass. Supplies for fishing were there for rental/purchase including worms, lures, rods. They have free buckets to use, but it would have been better also if they had some nets and pliers too as various others borrowed ours during our visit. You bag and pay for fish, and then can pay $1 for cleaning and 0.50 for fileting (or maybe the other way around).

This "pond" is actually a huge beautiful lake surrounded by some beach, some wooden docks with boats, rocky cliffs, trees, a yacht club and million dollar mansions. The Green Pond is also the name of the surrounding private residential lakeside community. You need a badge, sort of like a beach badge to officially be allowed onto the beach and lake. My coworker had one for me since his parents have a house in the community surrounding the lake. The pond itself is beautiful and goes down about 8-12 feet in depth in most areas of the lake. We went out around 6:30 pm and caught 4 decent sized fish before sundown. We threw them back as it was more about the sport. It was a gorgeous evening with the skies blue. We cracked some beers and had some subs. It was super peaceful and so relaxing. The lake was simply fantastic. I guess you kind of need to know someone or actually live in this community to access the lake, so if you ever get the opportunity, definitely check this place out.

The Pequest River is a 36 mile tributary of the Delaware River in northwestern NJ, it's name…read moremeaning comes from the Native American term for "Open Land". The Pequest Trout Hatchery owns over 4000 acres on which they raise trout. Founded and established in 1982 the Hatchery is presently responsible for the stocking of over 600,000 brook, brown, and rainbow trout annually. The Pequest River Trout Conservation fishing areas and trails are open daily, dawn till dusk and can be fished as long as all NJ State fish and game regulations are met. And you will definitely need a valid fishing license as well as a valid trout stamp which help funds the stocking program. The Pequest Trout Hatchery and Interpretive Center is open Monday through Friday 9am to 4pm. This is an excellent tour especially anyone who is interested in seeing how trout are raised, housed, and released into NJ freshwater streams and rivers. Get your kid out of the house and take them Fishing, you'll both be glad that you did.

Pequest Trout Hatchery is a state owned and operated trout hatchery. It began i'ts operation in…read more1981 and produces 700.000 trout annually on 5,000 acres of WMA land. The hatchery tour is self-guided which is clearly marked by a green trout on the sidewalk that takes you to two different hatchery areas. The nursery building and the egg room. There are pictures on the windows which describe the operation from fertilizing the egg to final release of the trout into streams and rivers. You are not permitted in the rooms themselves. Brown, rainbow, etc. trout are all raised here. The best time to visit is between mid-September to early October but the facility is open year round. The second sidewalk trail leads to the Observation Platform. The platform gives you an overlook of the raceway (pools of trout) held year around for size development. If you are an avid fisherman, biologist or just interested in science this is a worthwhile experience with much to learn. The visitor's center has loads of taxidermy and I especially liked the black bear. Dioramas, a small pond with trout, and information boards add to your knowledge of the natural world. Aside from the hatchery there are a number of other activities available like hiking, hunting, bird watching and fishing in nearby Pequest river. The red trail has interpretive signs and leads you to the yellow and blue trails. Special events include their Open House (April 2/3) which is free, fly casting for beginners, family fishing basics and hunter's education which require a two week pre-registration. There are a lot of outdoor activities offered at Pequest.
